Conflicted. Help!!

in Wedding Party
Okay I need comments on whether or not it is okay to have my wedding party the way it is...
My maid of honor will be my bestfriend
But the bridesmaid's are my concern.
1) My Aunt
2) My Stepmom (I consider her my real mother however)
3) Sister
4) Fiance's Mom (I have been close to her my whole life)

Is it totally unorthodox to have mainly family in the wedding party?

    It's fine. There are no rules about who should/shouldn't be in the wedding party.

    My fiance's side is all family.  That's who he is closest to in life...  So if you have that close of a relationship with all of them, that's awesome! :)

    I answered you on another board. Next time, if you post on multiple boards, could you please put XP in your subject line?  Thanks!
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    Your bridal party is supposed to be made up of people who are closest to you.  It sounds like you have that covered, and are doing swimmingly well.

    [QUOTE]I take it you are not close to your mom? Is she coming to the wedding? With absolutely no background info my only concern is she would feel pretty hurt seeing the other moms up there in the wedding party. Might make her feel out of place.
